I'm like Earl (for whom the Turner Diaries was named) who was conservative about lots of things and against hardcore decadence, but who would occasionally still have a few beers and seafood, briskly rub his palms together and suddenly exclaim: "Ahhh, decadence!"

Boy George deserves what Oscar Wilde got (a prison term for being a homosexual).

Thanks for posting. I'd like to contribute a few comments about Wilde myself, though it becomes a bit more complicated:

Wilde could probably have continued his dual lifestyle (he had a wife and two sons until he was imprisoned) without being prosecuted at all, though Britain did indeed have laws against homosexuality, because most people were not prosecuted for it.

What made Wilde's case special, however, in the eyes of the public and the courts (and myself), was that he interfered with a father trying to turn his son away from that lifestyle (which the son eventually did give up), then Wilde compounded his error by trying to imprison the boy's father for slander by pretending that he was not homosexual.

Today, however, when this subject comes up with many people - especially when recounted by liberals or Gays - it's told with the spin about him being solely prosecuted for homosexuality.

Then they add attendant allegations of how the boys father, the Marquess of Queensberry - who authored the world famous rules for boxing, was "incapable of love and rough on his son." But obviously the public and the courts saw it all from a very different perspective in 1895; backing up a father who loved his son enough to risk even a fight to the finish and prison.

Many people are actually unaware that, as Queensberry was quite familiar with fighting strategies, such as the fake with your left and hit them with your right, that his social and legal clash with Wilde was actually well thought out ahead of time and not a situation of emotionally losing control.

Another aspect of this story which is nearly always overlooked, as televison's Dr. Phil McGraw would say, is "What was Wilde thinking?' My personal estimate is that his behavior, reckless in a couple of ways for a highly intelligent person, was attributable to alcoholism. And whenever I see a filmed version of this story which depicts Wilde with a drink in his hand just before his arrest, I figure there's another researcher who's on to what really happened.

Now despite all of the above, which is quite an interesting story by the way, I would like to add that I'd highly recommend Wilde's little prison inspired essay about spirituality and suffering, De Profundis. Despite even its controversial aspects, it's one of Western Civilization's classics. And I hope we'll see any future PLE shop carrying that and Queensberry's rules.

I don't do drugs but I do drink and smoke and I can't live too long without my internet but other than that I'm against too much excess. There are a lot better ways to spend your time and money than on trivial things that in the end mean little or nothing.

I'd rather give my extra money to causes I believe in like SF and other WN causes.

See the second quote in my signature. I'll reprint it just in case I ever change it:

[A] large part of our people recognizes that changing the structure of the state cannot in itself improve our position, but that this can only be achieved by the rebirth of the nation's moral and spiritual forces. ---- A. Hitler, 1919
